Sims 4: SuperHeroes and Villains Ideas....comics and nerdy stuff

Wow! You really thought this through!

Personally I would love to see a Super pack, but the focus for me would be more like the mutants from x-men or the the Incredibles, where the focus is more on sims with superpowers just trying to live their lives.

The crime fighting angle would be harder to incorporate into the Sims 4 style. But I would love to see a crime fighting career added, then aliens and vampires could also get in on the action.

Another idea would be to incorporate Supers into a dystopian future like pack where the heroes are using their powers to fend off zombies or something. Talk about a niche pack, but I can see it as their last wacky, just-for-fun pack at the end of the Sims 4.

> Sims can become a superhero or a villain by working their way up the track (similar to get famous). Sims have the option to do good deeds or bad deeds by completing small missions or big storyline based missions. Just like Get famous superheroes and villains can have a following or copycats. Both superheroes and villains can have sidekicks and mentor them. They can also established team with a diverse set of skills (Avengers). Also, they can chose to live a double life and have 2 jobs. For example, a superhero can fight crime while they’re on their lunch break from working as a scientist or teacher.

> Comic Enthusiast can make their own comics or comic art in print or online. They can increase their skills by drawing (new), painting, photography, writing, comedy and charisma skills. They must network with other sims to gain more publicity for their comics. They can do this by introducing themselves to other individual sims and mention they write comics/ create comic art and offer them a free book or card with information of the webcomic page. They can also network with high end comic writers or enthusiasts but this will require strong skills in charisma and a certain level of existing recognition. Sims can gain more recognition by uploading their art or comic strips on simstagram, attending geek con conferences and meet with famous comic writers or artists or with regular sims who may work with a famous comic writer or artist. Also, depending on their skills they can partner with bookshops or comic shops to sell their comic books/art.

I LOVE the fact of EA implimenting the careers of a bookstore or comic shop owner. I have to admit, when I read that, it gave me some Rio (the movie) vibes.

Your idea for a Superhero career reminds me a bit of the manga/anime Tiger and Bunny. XD

My hope for a Supers pack is that they'll include mutagens that your sim can encounter and "freak lab accidents" that can happen to give sims their powers. I also want a gene splicing/genetic engineering machine so very, very much.

...What? I grew up in America in the 90's. Just about every kids' action/adventure cartoon worth its key frames (and some that weren't) had genetic engineering, mutagens, cloning, and/or gene splicing at some point in their run. That has colored my tastes a particular tinge of ooze green...

As I am a huge superhero fan, this sounds like a great idea. I doubt this is something that would get added, but I would absolutely LOVE it.

I would love a super gritty, urban world like Gotham.

Makes me want buildable, ownable apartments, so I could have an evil slumlord sim. That would be another pack though...

you know, comicbooks is one of the things I really, really miss in the sims.
Even if we might never get playable superheros/villians, I would love a comicbook based career (like discribed here) more comicbook/superhero CAS and BB items and a new collection of comicbooks to find (which would have gone great with city living imho, way better than those snowglobes).

And oh, yes, a city like gotham would be a dream....I already build the iceberg lounge btw :)

What a great idea! Sign me up, take my money lol

I think this idea especially this idea would go well with geekcon because we already have Sims dressing up in cosplaying but why not have the superheroes also buying comics and magazine at geekcon trade comics and posters and other stuff.

Now that I've seen Strangerville, I think this pack could happen, as long as it allows us to create our own Hero and villains and stage our own fights.

My Superheroes and Villains are of the supernatural and Human origin. So they would need to make sure supernaturals, Realm of Magic, Vampires, Potentially Werewolves in the near future, can meld with this pack.

I don't hate the idea, but I think it is somewhat redundent since there are already a countless stream of superhero games already out there.
